Description

The challenge Our planet"s resources are limited, and environmental pollution is on the rise. The OECD projects that plastics and packaging consumption will nearly double by 2050, underscoring the urgent need to transition from a linear "take-make-dispose" economy to a circular one. Our predominant linear model depletes finite resources, generates escalating waste volumes, and strains ecosystems, with only 9% of plastic waste globally being recycled as per UNEP reports. A circular economy (CE), on the other hand, emphasises on resource efficiency through reuse, recycling, and recovery, offers a sustainable alternative to mitigate environmental degradation and optimise material lifecycles. In Indonesia, where local governments struggle with providing waste management services and infrastructure that needs to keep pace with rapid urbanisation and consumption growth, adopting circular principles is critical to addressing mounting environmental and economic challenges. Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is pivotal in operationalising a circular economy by enforcing the Polluter Pays Principle (PPP), compelling producers to internalise the costs of managing their products" end-of-life waste. By implementing a dual system for packaging and other waste streams, EPR shifts the financial burden from overburdened municipal budgets to producers, incentivising eco-design and efficient waste management. In Indonesia, where inadequate financing hampers effective waste collection and processing, resulting in over 60% of plastic waste being mismanaged (World Bank, 2021), EPR offers a m
